x/donald-john-trump
— 2d
Democrats must flip four Senate seats to claim a majority in the November 3 midterms, with analysts identifying nine highly competitive races from North Carolina and Michigan to Texas and Alaska, where candidate quality and national dynamics such as President Trump’s low approval ratings could sway outcomes. In the House, Democrats aim to gain about three seats in key battlegrounds including Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, amid a political environment that mirrors 2022 contrasts of an unfavorable president and inflation, potentially reshaping control across Congress.

— 5d
Brazil’s Senate approved the Redata special tax regime to suspend federal taxes on data-center equipment, with a projected 5.2 billion reais tax impact in 2026, and sent the bill to President Lula for signature; the regime also imposes conditions such as renewable or low-emission energy use and minimum domestic market reservations. The same session also advanced a separate 30 billion reais driver credit program, highlighting Brazil’s broader push to attract data-center investment and digital infrastructure development.

President Donald Trump has nominated Hung Cao, the acting Navy Secretary, for the permanent post as the Navy contends with strain from ongoing operations in Iran and leadership turnover, praising him as a “true WARRIOR.” The nomination moves to the Senate for confirmation, with Cao already having led the Navy in an acting capacity since April and underscoring the service’s focus on readiness, shipbuilding, and homeland defense amid a challenging deployment pace.
